Hi everyone,

I was recommended a regime for my skin, just prior to buying this book. I went out and spent about $400 aussie for my skin - however I am having problems and am not sure what to do.

I know now that my skin is DSPW. I actually came up a DRPW but given my reaction to the products I was using, I am going with being sensitive.

So I was recommended this by a beauty therapist:

AM
Ultraceuticals Milk Cleanser
Ultraceuticals Ultra ACE Eye and Lip Serum
Ultraceuticals Ultra C Sheer
Megan Gale Invisible Zinc

PM
Moogoo Oil Cleansing Method (removes makeup)
Ultraceuticals Milk Cleanser
Ultraceuticals Ultra ACE Eye and Lip Serum
Ultraceuticals Ultra A Treatment Cream

2-3 times a week Alpha H Micro Cleanse (exfoliator with glycolic)

The idea was to get lots of vitamin c and retinol in my regime to help with pigmentation, without drying my skin.

Anyway - I stuck to this for about a week. Then my skin decided to react. It looked sunburnt and the creams really really irritated me. Before that, they were irritating but bearable - but then I couldn't apply them. All around my mouth is dry and flakey, my eyes feel very very dry and my neck is shocking. My neck is the worst. It's hard, scaley, rough and dry. It also itches.

I've stopped using the creams for now. I am just using the cleansers (not exfoliator) and am applying Perfect Potion Herbal Renewal Eyecream and Dermalogica Intensive Moisture. I had these in my cupboard.

I want to know if I can keep the above in my regime (as they cost too much to throw out) and is there any one thing that can help my skin go back to normal so I can try again? It's so dry and my neck is really yuck. I don't want to have to spend a fortune. I just want my skin to return to normal so I can try these products again (any suggestions on reintroducing would be awesome too).

I also live in a remote area so the internet is my way to shop. Am also in Australia which may make a difference.

Thanks everyone
